    Unfortunately no respected MLB front office professional will work for Henry which is why he hired an assistant GM for prez of bb ops. The position has been a revolving door of disrespect from Henry towards the person in that position since Theo left. People want stability in that position, and they want to be respected. They don’t want to buy a house only to have to sell it 3 years later and move the family across the country again. Henry doesn’t provide stability to his front office personnel or his players. No loyalty.

    I agree. I think im a little bias because i was never a fan. I do think hes checked out though. this is going to be this offenses problem. LOTs of slumping and inconsistency. Theres a lot of 250-260 lifetime BAs in this lineup like I was saying in an earlier post. personally I do think its time for a managerial change regardless how I personally feel about him.

    I think Cora has checked out. There’s a lot of streaky bats in this lineup up and not one legit 300 hitter. Not one legit 30hr bat and too much reliance on young players in their first year or two of MLB with no proven track record. Henry may have a high AAV but his real money spent is around 180ishM with all his backloaded deals. So realistically he can go over and cover the REAL money spend and still be under as far as out of pocket goes. Then after 2027 the payroll drops off a cliff and he can reset again. He’s a cheap ass. I really hope something happens where he sells. I doubt it, but one can still pray 🙏 it happens.

    I would have had Yoshida leading off with a 400 obp over a week ago. Same with Contreras and abreu before they started cooling off. Cora stuck with cold bats too long. If I’m Breslow? I quit because I’m in over my head. Stick with pitching and lead that dept. ..Realistically though, we NEED a legit big bat, but the boss is a cheap ass. Bres put together a bunch of guys with 240-270 BAs, which can get you a lot of streaky hitters. Nobody to really fear with all the free swinging going on too. Defense hasn’t been much better and what was supposed to be a dominant starting staff has been mediocre. It’s still early but this team now has to go about 600 the rest of the way to make last years record. I don’t see that with this group and Cora leading this team. I’m not optimistic.

    So this is what we can expect moving forward from John Henry now.? This team is a mess and are hard to watch. 6B man and he pinches Pennie’s. Sell the team loser.

    Hey Moon, yeah, He’s stubborn about that. I would’ve done it a week and a half ago. I wish this team had a real threat in this lineup. Expect lots of streaky ABs with this mediocre lineup regardless.

    Finally Abreu and Contreras with bat in the first inning. Two best hitters so far should be up in inning 1. Good move by Cora

    I have them in fourth place with about 84 wins.

    We will have to either draft or stock up on starting pitching to trade for a young legit 30hr bat under control since our clown owner won’t go 30m per for one. We’ll have to win with pitching most nights now since we don’t have one guy who has hit 30hr in a year. We’ll have a LOT of 240-270 type hitters so it’s a very streaky lineup with nobody who strikes fear in any MLB starter, I don’t see more than 84ish wins. I hope I’m wrong, but this team doesn’t have that good vibe. Breslow has put together an unbalanced lineup and Cora seems like he’s checked out.

    God I hope so. He’s looked good out of the pen. Back before the navel academy he was throwing 98 with command of 3-4 pitches. His fb velocity is more 95ish now last I saw I believe…or has it got back to upper? Can’t remember… Either way, I was happy he was returned and has a chance to make the show.

    Thanks! I was on the old globe forum about a decade ago. When it went down everyone scattered. A lot of names ended up here. Good to be back amongst loyal and knowledgeable Sox fans.

    He’s 19 with a big future ahead of him. Not fond of some of Breslows move but the dude is smart to load the farm with pitching. Not saying I would trade Valera but If the owner is going on the cheap for a legit power bat, then the next best way is to trade good pitching for a controlled young bat.

    Afternoon gentlemen, I’ve been really high on Eyanson. Great control and command of his pitches, with 4 that he has shown he can command with consistency.. Good size and makeup. I could see him being better then the mid rotation starter he’s listed at right now. Looking forward to possibly watching him pitching in Fenway in a couple years.
